report." wifeless than two weeks to go, president obama and mitt romney hit the campaign trail in florida, ohio, wisconsin, colorado, and virginia. polls continue to show the race in a dead heat nationally, and too close to call, in no fewer than ten swing states but the obama campaign and its media allies are questioning whether mitt romney's recent momentum is real. joining the panel his week, dan henning gary, james freeman, dorothy rabinowitz and kim strassel. kim, tell us how real the romney surge is. >> look, paul, i know two weeks is one side increasing its advantage in both the national polls and the swing state polls. that's romney. we have seen money flowing into that side. that's romney. we have seen him improve his performance in independents and womens. you can call it what you want and the media contends it isn't momentum but i bet the president's campaign is wishing they that that momentum. >> to that point, yes, the obama campaign wishes it had some of that momentum because i tell you what really going on. the president is flatlining. >> i think he hit a ceiling for two re

. tonight's foreign policy debate in boca raton will feature two different philosophies. president obama won the election last time by repudiating the american power as the big stick in the world. more obama believes the foreign policy decisions made by the bush-cheney administration hurt america because they alienated many countries that could have helped us. barack obama was a fierce opponent of the iraq war and presented himself to the world as a man that that would seek consensus rather than a president that would do whatever the heck he wanted to do. that foreign policy appealed to many americans who were tired of seeing complicated situations like iraq and afghanistan drag on and on. he went out of his way to tell the world that the u.s.a. would no longer to take the lead in controversies. we would work with other nations to solve problems. we saw that in libya. now many, including governor romney, believe that president obama's foreign policy has weakened america and emboldened our enemies. romney says iran, egypt and taliban and others no longer fear us therefore americans are in far

points over -- that's four percentage points over president obama, and with the clock ticking down until voters head to the polls, every minute, every second on the campaign trail could be critical. chris stirewalt is our fox news digital politics editor and host of "power play" on foxnews.com live. chris, hello from dallas. >> hi, megyn. meg and let's -- i'm still thinking about boca even though i've maneuvered over to -- moved over to dallas. [laughter] but these two candidates are eyes on the road. they are all about what's over the next two weeks and ground game. your thoughts on where we go in the wake of last night from here. >> well, here's the deal, even if the president can claim a victory inside the debate winning with some focus groups, not others, even if he can say that, he didn't achieve his objective, and the objective last night was to use the last remaining scheduled moment to reset an election that he's losing, that he's on his way to lose, that he missed his opportunity to reset the race. he came out swinging very hard against mitt romney, cometted on the attack, scorn

: good evening, everybody. the presidential race taking a disturbing turn. president obama using profanity to directly install -- install governor mitt romney in a magazine interview. the article published days after the president martin patronizes republican opponent in the presidential debate. the president's public behavior, a departure from history as well as ability. the president's critics call his conduct not only disrespectful to his opponent but to the office he holds. we will take all of that up tonight, talking with two leading psychologists, doctors ludwig and guard derrick as we all try to better understand the pressures that the president is under and what he's thinking. also tonight, cbs and 60 minutes inexplicably buried the lead in its interview with president obama that it aireddlast month. cbs releasing a portion of the interview in which president obama talked about benghazi, and he made it clear that the internet video had not occurred to the administration in the first 24 hours as a reason for that attack. why did 60 minutes cut the president's statement? fo

independence swing says the today. they'll be hitting iowa, nevada, colorado. president obama continues to attack mitt romney for his changing positions with his new favorite word, romnesia. designed to fire up his base. >> we can fix you up. there's a cure. there's a cure. there's a cure, but you got to vote to make sure that the medicine is there forumnesia. >> but it's mitt romney who claims to have the momentum. >> and these debates have supercharged our campaign. there's no question about it. we're seeing more and more enthusiasm, more and more support. we haven't heard an agenda from the president. that's why his campaign is taking on water and our campaign is full speed ahead. >> let me bringing in ron fournier, editor-in-chief of the national journal and nia malik cag henderson political reporter at "the washington post." you know, mitt romney's big criticism that will president obama doesn't have a plan, so to answer that, the president released that glossy pamphlet we've been reading about it, he's using it on the campaign trail. >> i've laid out a plan for jobs and middle cla

americaing now that the obama administration knew right away that the benghazi terror attack was not caused by a spontaneous protest over a video. >> state department e-mails one shows an al qaeda linked group claimed responsibility for the attack as it happened. molly henneberg is live. >> these e-mails were sent on september 11th as the attack was unfolding in libya. they were sent in real time by the state department to about 300 to 400 national security officials. in the white house situation room, the fbi, director of national intelligence and state department they say a terrorist group had claimed responsibility for the attack. let's go through the earliest e-mail. e-mail number one 4:05 eastern time on 9-11. it says quote u.s. in benghazi under attack. svu, sensitive but unclassified. it goes on quote proximate patly 20 armed people fired shots. explosions have been heard as well. ambassador stevens currently in benghazi and four personnel are in the compound safe haven. the next e-mail 50 minutes later update number one u.s. diplomatic mission in benghazi svu the firing has stopped

that they have huge challenges. >> oo the aura of the obama campaign. >> you know something is wrong about the direction we are headed right now. >> president obama hasn't given a vision for the second term agenda. to say i do have an agenda. >> i ask you to compare my plan with governor romney's plan. >> nobody thinks we have a plan for the second term. frankly they have not offered a plan for the second term. they took his convention speech bumped it up to a 20 page pamphlet handed it out as a plan for the future. >> you know we don't want to keep going in the same path than we have been on for the past four years. >> he can't run on this agenda. he can't run on this record. what we need is a leader to sees this moment for what it is, who had the courage of his convictions, who believes in the principles that built this country who knows how to reapply them. >> you know we can't afford four more years like the last four years. >> we lived in obama nation for the last four years and the ills of our society keep running deeper and deeper. >> a man with a moral compass a man with a bedrock

, and decided to make his endorsement in the presidential race between barack obama and john mccain that year, colin powell choosing obama for his endorsement was pretty much the last thing in the world the mccain campaign needed to hear. at that point, they were already becoming a really evident long shot. the race was starting to increasingly look like it wasn't even going to be close. and the colin powell endorsement just took the wind out of the mccain campaign's sails. john mccain responded to the endorsement that same day by going on fox news and sighing that, well, it wasn't all that much of a surprise. he at least, though, was able to say even if he did not have colin powell's endorsement, he did have endorsements from some other former republican secretaries of state. so at least he had those names to offer for counterbalance. the romney campaign's counterbalance tonight to them losing the colin powell endorsement this year is a whole different kind of counterbalance. >> you want to call me crazy, go to hell. call me crazy all you want. >> this morning, on cbs, republican former secr

to continue to grow on coal. i think that barack obama is the best thing that happened to the republican party since jimmy carter. i just really feel, at the end of the day, people are going to wake up when they go to the polls, they're going to make the right decision. it will be mitt romney. thank you. host: moving on to elkhart, indiana. dale is on our line for independents. dale is optimistic about the economy. go ahead, dale. caller: hi. how are you? host: i'm doing fine. you say that you're optimistic about the economy. why is that? caller: well, our economy is so big, it's just going to keep going no matter what, even though we came close to falling off of a cliff, we still rebounded no matter the negative or positive attitudes that were out there. we continue to still grow. we need to have more percentage growth. but i just feel it's just going to keep going no matter what our politicians or our big business or anybody does. host: hey, dale, what kind of business are you in? what do you do for a living? caller: i'm a quality technician for aerospace components. host: and based on the t

in that state, 8.7% in september. the 2008 vote went to president obama with a net of 2.8% in that state. this talk about unemployment and the economy, brian crowley. how much of that is a factor in florida? guest: i don't think it was a coincidence that during the foreign policy debate, mitt romney kept bringing it back to the economy. most people turning in were not going to be paying that close attention to some of the foreign policy issues, and i don't think many \ voters go to the polls to vote based on what our decisions will be with china or cuba, for that matter. but they do vote with their pocketbooks. statewide unemployment in florida is 8.7%, but it is much higher in various pockets of florida. in some counties, as high as 12% unemployment. as we all know, that does not talk about the under-employed. the economy is still struggling in florida. we have signs of it getting better, but i heard a story that foreclosures in the state are the highest in the nation. there's a lot of economic pressure in the state. people are feeling the pain, and whoever sells the economic message be

away at president obama for not being tough on china. not the way that he mitt romney would be tough on china. but the company mr. romney chose for his backdrop that day, the company that he chose to implicitly help make that case so happened to be a poster child for success by president obama in getting tough on china. in 2009 in the first months of mr. obama's presidency, american spring wire joined with two other makers of steel wire to ask for help. they said china was unfairly dumping steel wire in the united states market at artificially low prices. they asked for help. under president obama the commerce department said they would investigate and then the commerce department did move to protect american spring wire. they did crack down on china for dumping their underpriced product. thus benefiting american spring wire in exactly the way they had asked to be benefited. they got the help they wanted. a company that was then used as a backdrop for mitt romney saying president obama had not been tough on china. today mr. romney gave a major address on economic policy. this is part

. comas up under obama. he has come up under obama. so there's that, mitt. [ applause ] governor, the state isn't proud of you. you can't even compete in massachusetts. mittens talked about how proud he is in massachusetts. the feeling is not mutual. the president kind of having fun with the romnesia on the campaign trail. >> obama: if you talk about how much you love teaches during a debate but just a few weeks go, you said we shouldn't hire more because it wouldn't grow our economy, you might have romnesia. if you say you won't give a big tax cut to the wealthy but you're on a video promising your tax cut would include the top 1%, that sounds like a classic case of romnesia. >> stephanie: ray in texas. you're on "the stephanie miller show." hi ray. >> caller: good morning. that was fast. i'm usually on hold for an hour and 18 minutes. i wanted to make three quick little points. first about third party -- the third party debates last night and i'm actually considering giving my vote to jill stein because my

weeks. that is all it lasted. that is the only time during the obama years we've hit 4%. we haven't been at a sustained 4% level since the middle of the last decade. bill: wow. stuart, thank you. see you 9:20 on fbn. stuart varney. martha. martha: governor romney highlighting the economy on the campaign trail. he is set to deliver his closing arguments on that today in two critical swing states. governor romney will deliver a peach on the economy in ames, iowa. and then head to a critical battleground ohio at north canton ohio. ryan will go to north carolina and al obama before meeting up with the governor in the buckeye state. the polls show neck-and-neck race for the iowa's six electoral votes. romney hopes the speech will win over some voters. john roberts is there. good morning. what can we expect from governor romney's closing argument today? >> reporter: hi, martha. talking about the economy, deficit, federal spending according to his campaign. here in ames, iowa talk about the struggles, the fact that we can't keep borrowing and spending our way to debt. the basic message from gov

. >>> happening now, we're counting down to the final face-off between president obama and mitt romney. it's debate night in america. >>> also, i'll talk to a man who's actually debated both of these candidates before. senator john mccain. he's standing by to join us live this hour. >>> and the state that could make or break either campaign. we have brand-new poll numbers from ohio. i'm wolf blitzer. you're in "the situation room." >>> 15 days until the election and a critical night in the battle for the white house. this is the third and final presidential debate pitting mitt romney against president obama. we've just received these pictures of romney walking through the debate site in boca raton, florida. tonight's focus, foreign policy. and for both men, the stakes could hardly be higher. the tight race has gotten even tighter and tonight's contest could give either candidate the chance to pull ahead in these final critical days of this campaign. cnn's national political correspondent jim acosta is in boca rattan getting ready for the debate. what's the latest there? >> reporter: wolf,

religion shows a gender gap among voters that is similar to recent presidential election. obama is pulling more support among women voters. the gap appears to be driven less by issues such as reproductive rights, abortion of course we see low salient issue for most voters including when by instrument more bite social safety net concern. at what's interesting is in recent weeks as the romney campaign has been able to close the gap despite this data showing that women are less likely to believe that programs create a culture of dependency and despite the data showing that women can more about health care as an issue. women like men are most likely to say that the economy matters in their decision, so it appears that the romney campaign and this is on how the economy is affecting women, namely that there more women in poverty under the obama administration, and the recession has hit women hard in terms of job loss. this message may be making traction among women voters. when it comes to catholics, there are several points to emphasize. while catholics overall are more supportive of obama in t

about how the obama team views the final stretch. and i think again their internal polling and what you just said, you know the turn out, a lot of the groupings are feeling under polled, they are feeling emboldened enough to compete in all 90 battle grounds, they are feeling good enough about things in all nine of them, roo it's? >> yeah, we are feeling very good in all of the battle ground states. i think the polls will continue to fluctuate, somebody will be three or four points up and down. and we are not really focusing on that. we are focusing on actually getting folks, you know, knowing what their rights are to vote. knowing where their polling location is. frankly the get out the vote effort the number one thing that drives people to vote and changes the minds of voters is face-to-face voter contact and phone banking. it's not these ads that you see on tv. it's not the talking heads, you know, that come on cable news, it literally is community members talking to other community members and that's why

disillusioned. a >>> we are ten days away from the presidential election. president obama seems to be steadily regaining a narrow lead, a lead he held over mitt romney before the presidential debates began earlier this month. the latest polling averages according to nate silver of "the new york times" give president obama 50.3 with mitt romney 48.6. president obama has a 74% chance of winning the election based on his strong performance in several swing states. the president is hoping to capitalize on the momentum to encourage voters to go to the polls as soon as possible by taking advantage of early voting. as of this morning, more than 10.5 million people have already cast their ballots including the president himself. president obama flew back to chicago on thursday to take advantage of early voting in illinois becoming the first sitting president in history to cast a ballot early. mitt romney's campaign, meanwhile, has been buffeted by a series of things that happened to put him on defensive. richard mourdock, who romney has endorsed, became the latest gop candidate to make con throw versa

. president obama and mitt romney are on target to raise $1 billion each with their respective parties by election day. more recent numbers show romney outraising the president in early october. if the washington post endorsed president obama today even with their eyes open to the disappointment of his time in office, it says. a clear politics survey shows mitt romney with a 0.9% edge. a new associated press poll shows at the same time mitt romney has erased president obama's support among women, the president has eliminated romney's support among men. our first 45 minutes this morning takes a look at gender issues when it comes to voting, specifically whether your gender affects the way you vote. if you want to tell us why, you can do so on one of three lines this morning, all starting with the 202 area code that. -- code. if you want to reach out to us on social media, you can send us a tweet or send us an e-mail. or contact us on facebook. here's the associated press poll. this is from out of washington. it says -- joining us to talk about the details particularly the gender aspects

. in a month that's seen mitt romney surge and president obama stumble. tonight's showdown could be all that's needed to tip the scales from this deadlocked race. romney walks in with the most approved according to to a "washington post"/abc news poll. only 40% of registered voters believe he would do a better job at handling international affairs. that's compared to half for president obama. both men will be gunning for that 5% that's uncommitted. white house correspondent brianna keilar is in boca raton, florida, for the primetime face-off. brianna, by all accounts romney won the first debate. at least held his own in the second. as a former governor, he has no foreign policy experience. so does that put him at a huge disadvantage tonight? >> reporter: you know, that would put him at a disadvantage in terms of his grasp of the subject matter. president obama has four years of hands on experience with foreign policy. and you just can't beat that. but we're in this really interesting situation where the president is also very vulnerable to mitt romney because of what has happened in libya in

is $14 billion a year which put a spin under the george bush administration and the obama administration. where are you going to put this investment and get the money to build those additional ships? where are you going to get the sailors? talk about increasing the marines and the army, downsizing, the navy has been downsizing for a while. where are you going to get the sailors? >> my understanding is when john lehmann laid out a very specific plan there were two elements the governor has already spoken about. another element being considered. what was spoken about, first of all fifteen ships the year and second of all the three submarine's a year. so the rest of it is what we would consider. these are objective is. number 2 is how do you move the money around? when you move the money and where you take the additional money that is -- we predict we would allocate to the defense department, it is not at all surprising given the -- i don't care how good a ship -- you know very well, i don't care how good a ship is, you could only have one ship in one place at one time. if you want to have

at the new yorker magazine. they just endorsed barack obama and all the talk about the des moines register. people are overlooking the fact he bagged "the new york times" and the new yorker. hurricane sandy caused president obama and mitt romney to cancel events in virginia. this is important because with only nine days left until election day, it comes down to math and geography, the votes and the map. the map shrunk to seven swing states, virginia, iowa, new hampshire, wisconsin and ohio are all in play this cycle. president obama can count on 243 electoral votes that will go blue and romney can count on 106. with each having to get to 270 to win. the simple take away is the president's path to victory is significantly easier. polls show barack obama consistently ahead in iowa and wisconsin. if he holds on there, he won both last time, he just needs to win florida, ohio or virginia. he's behind in florida and a dead heat in virginia. he seems to be ahead in ohio. it's why the candidates are spending so much time in that state. obama has a 73.6% chance of winning. it's hard to imagine a r

in health care, right? president obama is elected he obama cared becomes the law of the land for sure. it becomes institutionalized. it becomes nothing is impossible, but it becomes close to impossible to reverse four years from now. it will be operating then. people will have moved over. there will have been tremendous changes. a mandate would've been enforced already to 20,000 irs agents will get hired, which is absolutely ludicrous. just we need, 20,000 more irs agents. and there's almost no way to stop that because even if you have a republican house, which i think is almost for sure. nothing in life is for sure, but that's almost for sure. even if you were to have a republican senate, which is unlikely if obama gets elected, but possible. well, he could veto any attempt they would make to overturn obama cared. american people and reelecting president obama are basically reinforcing obama cared and accepting it as their future. if a president romney is elected, even without a republican senate, basically the present those in the house about the same in the senate was then one or t

or so, president obama has arrived in southern florida. we should tell you that mitt romney is already there. the scene of tonight's debate is boca raton. and the subject is foreign policy. and the format will be this, barack obama and mitt romney, seated, they're going to be seated around a table with bob schieffer of cbs news. that's a hall you're looking at, obviously, it is a rehearsal. as you can see, they will be pretty cozy sitting around that table there. and now just in time for tonight's big debate, a very big story concerning foreign policy. possible, possible talks between the united states and iran after the election. one on one talks about iran's nuclear program and that would be a major shift in washington's policy toward tehran. keep in mind, though, the obama administration and iran both denight the talks have been agreed to. jim acosta, to you, he's at the scene for us of tonight's big debate, our coverage by the way begins tonight at 7:00 eastern. curious timing here, the story about potential talks between the u.s. and iran. i'm guessing that could take center stage

talks with iran to keep that country from becoming a threatening nuclear armed power, but the obama administration insists that a "new york times" report that it has agreed to one-on-one negotiations with iran is not true. a national council spokesman said "the president has made clear that he will prevent iran from getting a nuclear weapon, and we will do what we must to achieve that. it has always been our goal for sanctions to pressure iran to come in line with its obligations. the onus is on the iranians to do so. otherwise, they will continue to face crippling sanctions and increased pressure." the "new york times" reports that the agreement to talk one-on-one was the result of secret negotiations between iran and the u.s., and it reports, "there is still a chance the initiative could fall through, even if mr. obama is re-elected. iran has a history of using the promise of diplomacy to ease international pressure on it. in this case, american officials said they were uncertain whether iran's supreme leader ayatollah ali khamenei had signed off on the effort.

he gave last night in ohio where he trails president obama in recent polls. >> given the big challenges we have and the big election we have it's time for a big change. paul and i represent a big change for america. we recognize this is a year with a big choice and the americans want to see big changes and i'm going to bring it to this country. >> as for the president he's off the campaign trail today. instead he's sitting down for ten interviews including with "news nation" regular that aired only minutes ago. >> governor romney's economic policies are reverting back to the same policies that i inherited that led us to the slowest job growth in 50 years, record deficits, and the worst economic crisis since the great depression. >> also today brand new polling in two important states out in the wild west. our nbc news "wall street journal" m.arist poll has the president holding on to his lead in nevada. that same poll putting governor romney and the president in a dead even race in colorado. national daily tracking polls from "the washington post" and abc news gives romney a

't have an inch of knowledge about. of being president. tonight barack obama can show not just the sophistication of that experience, but the wisdom that comes from it. he should be able to win tonight convincingly and exploit that victory tonight in winning the presidency. >> chris, tonight we're looking at not just what's going on in the very short-term between these candidates, but also bigger picture stories about american foreign policy. for the better part of a generation, we've had a lot of consensus between the two parties. in my view during the last presidency before this one, during the george bush presidency, we saw something emer emerge. i don't know whether the republican party is going to stick with that or if they are going to revert to more centrist view that prevailed before. do you have any sense which direction mitt romney wants to go on this? he's talked so little about foreign policy. >> well, it seems to me that he's broken with one tradition, which is when the united states had the catastrophe like on 9/11 and everyone went in it together. nobody jumped a

information was cawfd up. >> strong suit of obama administration. it is john kerry blasting this investigation saying it is a moment of incompetence to release the names of these libyan officials. peter king not taking his foot off the gas. he wants to continue his investigation. he wants all documents and cables released from what happened. here is what he told geraldo last night. >> here is what the administration should do and i'm calling on them now. they should release and take any names they want for security reasons. all of the cables, all of the correspondence, all of the emails and contacts that went back between benghazi and washington. everything within the cia which was known and also whether or not several days prior to that they did have any advanced notice that this attack was coming. >> and you know, guys, of course, the president was on the daily show the other night, it was not a funny show on the daily show. he was very poignant in saying as information came out we have released it we have been forth right with the american people as we have gotten information we have releas

. >> talking about immigration is what we're talking about but mrs. vilsack, president obama has been more aggressive deportation of illegal immigrants than what president bush had been. if you join congress would you be supportive of that trend continuing? >> the most important thing to make sure we secure our borders. we need to make them secure. we need to do whatever we need to do to make them them secure people who are not crossing the border illegally or guns and drugs are not crossing illegally. so we need to protect the border. i also think that we need to make sure that jobs go to lawful americans but we need immigration rerecall to. we need to make sure that there is a pathway to citizenship for 11, to 13 million people who are here, this is who are in the shadows. i'm not talking about amnesty but i'm talking about paying fine, going to the end of the line, deporting felons and we need to make sure that we also, that the young people who are here who came here through no fault of their own get a chance at the american dream because many of them have, offered their lives for thei

it is a potentially different story. we have been quick. and president obama has been clear. we want it to extend middle- class tax relief, months ago. republicans have taken the position that unless you extend a bonus tax break for wealthier individuals, then nobody gets a tax cut extension. and if republicans and here to that position, it is very likely they would then be taking us over the cliff. the keys to the car are now in their hands on this particular issue. >> you might be able to put off the spending cuts and then fight about the taxes? >> i am not sure yet. i think there's broad agreement that the across-the-board sequester cuts are bad for the country. democrats to not like the cut to the fence and non-defense. we are together on the fact that would be bad for the country, but for the economy. i hope we could proceed on that track. we would love to be able to address the tax issue. but again, you have 98% of the house republicans signed the grover norquist pledged that does not one additional penny of revenue from wealthy people for the purpose of reducing the deficit. we believe you
